Republican State Representative Dean Urdahl of Grove City has filed for election to House District 18A.

Urdahl says he’ll continue to fight for the interests of his district and rural Minnesota. He says jobs and our economy must remain our top priorities, and we must foster a climate that allows businesses to thrive in Minnesota.

Rep. Urdahl currently chairs the Legacy Fund Division which distributes sales tax money from the 2008 Constitutional Amendment into four categories.

Urdahl is seeking his 6th term in the Minnesota House. District 18A includes all of Meeker County, Cokato Township and the City of Cokato in Wright County, and Lynn, Acoma, and Hutchinson Townships in McLeod County including the City of Hutchinson west of Highway 15.
